Amtrak stops in Lakeland, Jacksonville, Orlando, Sebring, Tampa, Miami, and Winterhaven as well as many other towns in the state. The trains that run between Los Angeles and Jacksonville cross the northern part of Florida, stopping in Pensacola, Tallahassee and other cities. Amtrak’s Autotrain service, which will transport both you and your car by rail, runs from Lorton, Virginia (outside Washington, D.C.), to Sanford, Florida (about 20 mi/30 km north of Orlando).
Reservations are a must on the autotrain. Another car/train service is the Florida Fun Train that runs between Hollywood, Florida, and Kissimmee (near Orlando). It includes special entertainment cars for children and a wine bar and pub for the grownups. Telephone Number: 1-800-USA-RAIL

Greyhound provides bus service between Florida cities and to points outside the state. Tel: (800) 454-2487

Three major interstate highways start (or end) in Florida: I-95 from the Maine-Canada border to Miami; I-10 from Los Angeles to Jacksonville; and I-75 from the Canada-Michigan border at Sault Ste. Marie to just outside Miami. The Florida Turnpike (a toll road) splits off of I-75 northwest of Orlando and runs to Homestead, south of Miami. I-4 runs from near Daytona Beach to Tampa. Once on I-75, Tampa is very easy to find.
